Albertsons Community Partners fundraiser
An easy way that SAMBA earns dollars (without
much effort from us) is to shop at Albertsons -- a Community
Partner with SAMBA. All you need to do is link you
Albertsons Preferred Savings Card to SAMBA. And it costs you
nothing! Click for
instructions.
Volunteer background checks required The Beaverton School District requires background checks
for all volunteers across the district. That means that all
adults who help out during the marching season, from
flipping burgers to chaperoning to selling tickets at the
Sunset Classic, must be approved by the District. The
form is online and very quick and easy. Please take a
couple of minutes today and click this link to
submit your background check request:
https://www.beavton.k12.or.us/volunteer/
If you have already completed the background check, it does
cover all Beaverton schools. Your name will not show up on
Sunset's list, but Sunset personnel are able to confirm with
the district office that you have been approved.
The district is working a web page that will allow
approved volunteers to add additional schools. Please forward this link to any friends or family who would
also like to help us out during the season and encourage
them to submit their request as soon as possible as well.
